you need a lot of Ion Tokens to play that :D

It looks like that this list has all you need to annoy your enemie to death...

Tons of Hitpoints paired with potential doubletaps and every ionized enemie will never get a dial again.

i will definetly try this.

How would you fly this list, in one formation or block or rather straight attack line where each ship would have space to maneuver and or barrel roll?

Aside from never fly line astern (I may have misread, did you mean line abreast?) unless you only have 1 enemy ship left to worry about and can guarantee a range 1-2 multi-ship broadside (you can't, it also negates using VTG at all, and line astern into an enemy squad is guaranteed to feed them 1 ship at a time), how you fly it depends. Flying as a "block" with Drea bringing up the rear can be good for concentrated fire, but as you pointed out it is **** on maneuvering. What I've found is best for this is to fly loose (no formation) and focus your maneuvers so that you always have multiple of your ships able to focus on the target in Drea's arc or arcs (her turret arc and primary arc both count range 1-3 from her) with both of their weapons. You can also block against most opponents with the Goons and with Drea's ability the blocker can rotate their turret arc and still get a mod. Don't try and force Swarm Tactics (the range 1 bubble isn't small).
